Default W/O revision

Yeah. Edward De Bono wrote "The book of Wisdom" iirc in like three days. It was a book about several of his ideas bound together, like an anthology of comments, so that didn't really call for editing. There are stories all over about writing without editing. Asimov allegedly rarely edited his work.

Many people can write something good enough to publish without editing. Can you-- can I? Well, for me I have to say, "Not yet." (I've just arrived at "conscious incompetence" at writing... very exciting! I suspect that I will arrive at that many times though as my standards raise...)
